The round teak gateleg table
Posted by John on 13th Nov 2017
Anyone looking for the perfect garden table needn’t look further than the gorgeous round teak gateleg from Chairs and Tables.
At 120cm in diameter, it has a great surface area that is perfect for all manner of dining occasions, be it a summer barbeque or a spot of lunch with the family.
Better still, being made from sustainably source teak wood guarantees the round teak gateleg table is a product that will last for many years - you night not need to buy another garden table again!
For example, the teak used to craft this stunning table features tightly packed grains and an abundance of natural oils within. The result? One of the most durable materials out there; this table is fully resistant to water, which happens to be the leading cause of rot and decay for most outdoor wooden furniture.
Given the rather wet weather we see here in the UK, owning a garden table that can withstand countless days of rain without taking any damage is certainly worth investing in. Not only does teak withstand most adverse weather, it’s also very strong and heavy, making it rather difficult to damage.
The table surface itself is 28mm thick, with the surface being smoothed to near perfection.
Simply running your hand over the table highlights the level of craftsmanship on display - expect it to be the crown jewel of your outdoor décor.
As mentioned, it has an impressive size that can sit roughly eight people depending on the chairs. In terms of height, it’s a standard 75cm tall, and there is also a predrilled hole on the surface area to add a parasol (up to 5cm in diameter) if desired.
Another great feature is the fact that the table easily collapses. This makes storage very easy if needed, with the table reducing to just 16cm wide when fully folded, so even if you’re tight on storage space it shouldn’t be an issue.
As each side folds down separately, you can use this to set up one side of the table against a flat surface such as a wall or fence. Arriving fully assembled, you can start using the table immediately and don’t need to worry about using type of treatments - the natural appearance of teak is simply too attractive to cover up!
Teak ages naturally too, taking on a slightly silver-patina hue as it ages. Should you wish to maintain the original honey-colour of the table, simply use some teak sealant when it arrives, applying roughly once a year, or simply sand down the surface a little.
The round teak gateleg table is the perfect addition for your outdoor space. Large, strong, and with a beautiful finish, there isn’t any occasion that can’t be enjoyed sitting around this lovely table.
